Spartanburg, South Carolina Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle accidents do happen in Spartanburg, South Carolina, and like anywhere else they can be deadly. Motorcyclists are twenty-five times more likely to die in accidents than their counterparts driving automobiles or trucks. The life of Stephen Roebuck, a local man from Spartanburg, was cut short by such a crash in early 2015; he succumbed to massive injuries at the site of his accident, and many just like him have been lost in a similar way. Even if a motorcycle accident is not fatal, it can result in major costs paired with a long or even indefinite period of unemployment. A motorcycle can be a unique and fun way to get from place to place, and because of the exposure they open their operators to on the road, the laws regarding motorcycles are quite particular. The motorists who operate these machines have as much right as anyone to be on the road, so it is important that their rights be protected, both proactively and in the wake of a devastating crash. Grimes Teich Anderson's motorcycle crash lawyers possess the time-tested knowhow to protect your rights and help make sure that your motorcycle crash or accident claim is handled properly.
The law in South Carolina obligates at-fault parties (persons, companies, and other entities that may contribute to your motorcycle accident) to pay for medical costs and vehicle repairs associated with a motorcycle accident. No insurance company wants to pay for their at-fault policyholders, though, and in situations involving motorcycles, which are often particularly severe, they have great reason to dodge making a claim. At the end of the day, many insurance companies are more interested in protecting the bottom line than they are in providing benefits to the injured. This makes anticipating a fair claim or negotiating with an insurance company without legal representation unlikely to net the best possible benefits package. Underestimating the value of your case or delaying your claim would likely cause you to surrender some of your legal rights or block you from collecting some or all of the benefits you need to cover your accident expenses.
